We know your vision is important to you – and it’s important to us. When you come for your appointment, we make sure to schedule ample time for your appointment so you will never feel rushed. Because early detection is the key, our office provides complete eye care for both adults and children. Our comprehensive eye examinations will check your eyes inside and out for any potential eye disorders or diseases. Your visual skills and abilities are carefully evaluated and appropriate treatment is prescribed, whether it’s medication, lenses, or vision therapy. We are prepared to handle whatever your eyecare needs are, and will treat them with the latest in diagnostic equipment and are committed to keeping up with eye care technology.
Contact Lenses
Our professionals can help fit you into a pair of lenses that is just right for you. We are experts in fitting contact lenses and can handle the most specialized needs. Whether rigid or soft lenses, we are experienced in handling the most difficult of prescriptions.
If you have allergies, then you know allergies can be particularly annoying to contact lens wearers. In the past many people had to quit wearing their lenses during the allergy season. However, new lens materials and allergy medications have made it possible for these people to eliminate the burning itchy eyes associated with allergies. Prescription medications such as Patanol and Alocril are amazingly effective and safe even in children as young as three. Let us know when you come in for your appointment if you have special allergy needs and we will be happy to help you.

Laser Vision Correction
Many people with vision correction issues want to know if LASIK would be an option for them. It is our belief that when doctors work together for the benefit of our patients, the outcome and patient satisfaction from laser vision correction can be outstanding. Our office is affiliated with TLC Laser Eye Centers(r), with whom we co-manage LASIK services. All of your primary care, such as the pre and post-operative care is performed in our office, while the ophthalmic surgery is performed at TLC. TLC shares our commitment to quality care, superior clinical staff experience, cutting-edge technology and successful results.
Surgery Co-Management
Our office provides many of the surgical services such as Cataract surgery, Laser surgery, Refractive surgery and Strabismic surgery. We offer this in conjunction with the hospital and local eye surgeons.
Additionally, we have working arrangements established with other specialized eye care doctors to manage such things as retinal detachments, retinal tears and hemmorhages.
Corneal Refractive Therapy
Corneal Refractive Therapy is nighttime vision correction that gives you freedom from glasses and contacts all day without refractive surgery. CRT is a specially designed therapeutic device that gently and temporarily reshapes the cornea while you sleep. Through intense research and clinical testing, CRT has been proven both safe and effective for patients of all ages when worn during sleeping hours, earning this therapy FDA approval for nighttime use.
Corneal Refractive Therapy is a technologically advanced, non-surgical process, which reshapes the cornea while you sleep. You remove the device when you awake and are able to go throughout the day without any other correction. CRT is temporary. If you stop wearing the device your vision will return to its original state in a little as 72 hours.
This is designed for individuals with low to moderate myopia (nearsightedness up to -6.00 diopters) with or without astigmatism (up to -1.75 diopters). There are no age restrictions for CRT, which makes it a great option for everyone in the family. However, since there are variations in patient physiology and visual needs, the decision for CRT, at any age, can ony be made after a thorough eye exam and the recommendations of Dr. Scott Forester.
Eye Infections, Eye Injuries, Dry Eyes
Our office provides emergency services for eye infections and eye injuries. Please call our office at 405-840 2800 during office hours. Our staff will work with you to schedule an appointment as soon as possible. State of the art electron microscopes allow us to examine the front surface of the eye and facial areas around the eye for infection or injury. After assessing the extent of the injury or infection a treatment plan will be formulated and explained to you. Treatment may include medications and supportive care. Follow-up visits to monitor your recovery will be scheduled as needed.
Dry Eyes: Symptoms include scratchy eyes, burning, mild redness and gritty feeling eyes. Oral medications, reading, computer tasks and dry environments may aggravate marginally dry eyes. Dry eyes can be diagnosed by using dyes to observe tear patterns, evaluation of the amount of tears on the front of the eye and from review of your symptoms. Treatment may include artificial tears; eye drops for treating allergies; and/or punctal plugs inserted in the tear drainage canals.
Optomap™ Retinal Exam
We are proud to offer you the latest technology in eye exams – the Optomap™ Retinal Exam. Optomap™ technology allows us to perform the most thorough exam of your eyes than ever before, WITHOUT dilation. It is comfortable, convenient, and takes less time than a dilated retinal exam.

CirrusOCT™
Your eye health is important to us so we strive to use the very best in diagnostic equipment to catch eye disease early and track minute changes that other methods may not detect.
The CirrusOCT™ is a state-of-the-art diagnostic imaging device that provides direct cross-sectional images of the retina to aid in the early detection of glaucoma and retinal diseases.
Visualizing the retinal layers is important in properly diagnosing and treating diseases such as diabetic macular edema and age-related macular degeneration. It can also show otherwise unseen pathology such as macular holes. The CirrusOCT™ uses a highly sensitive technique that may detect abnormalities and damage from glaucoma earlier than standard methods. These unparalleled capabilities make CirrusOCT™ a powerful complement to other diagnostic tests in achieving a balanced, comprehensive diagnostic picture and manage a broad range of retinal diseases.
